Niall_CSK Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Hi Gents, no I am not lost I have been tasked with finding a home for the neighbours SWB SII, he is not asking anymore than a decent bottle of malt! Details: A reg SWB. 2.25 petrol. "Countified" hardtop (windows & seats) No MOT or tax, needs some chassis work etc. I am told it is still a runner but haven't seen it myself for a long time. Been a farm vehicle for the last 5 years or so. Laid up just south of Ayr (Scotland) near the A77. Anybody interested PM me with your email or phone number & I will put you in touch with the owner.
